Background
The goal of the Joint Doctrine Ontology (JDO) project is to create a formal and computer-readable representation of the content of the major doctrinal publications, using as starting point the definitions in the DoD Dictionary (JP 1-02).
Examples of Potential Benefits of the JDO
1. to doctrine authors:
- - enabling the creation of flexible visualizations of how different parts of doctrine interact, or of doctrinal content relevant to particular types of operations or capabilities
- - allowing a tracing of dependences between definitions that can help to ensure that changes in definitions cascade appropriately through all dependent definitions when revisions are made
2. to doctrine users:
- - enabling more effective discovery of doctrinal knowledge in forms useful for computational reasoning
- - providing for each term in the DoD Dictionary its own web page, serving as a repository of usage and of revision history,
3. in the form of new uses for the content of doctrine
- - allowing the DoD Dictionary to serve as entry point for web-based searches across multiple repositories of authoritative data
- - facilitating greater coordination of training and operations particularly as these involve IT systems working alongside human beings
- - increasing automation of processes such as plan specification, ops assessment, BlueForce Status, and scenario development
- - allowing new sorts of assessment processes, for example based on measures of adherence to doctrine, processes which may in turn give rise to new ways of computationally identifying areas where changes in doctrine may be needed
The Joint Doctrine Ontology will enable doctrine to serve as a new source of ground truth for ontologists across DoD and IC that will help to identify gaps and errors in existing military ontologies. It will thereby support consistent agile ontology development of a sort that will counteract current tendencies towards silo-formation and failure of interoperation.
